Largo version 0.6.4

Largo 0.6.4

This release brings improved compatibility with the WordPress Block Editor. The Pull Quote block gains full styling, so that block quotes and pull quotes no longer appear the same. Media credits are now output on Image blocks.

The Largo Series Posts Widget gains more options for the display of images.

Largo gains support for the wp_body_open hook, introduced in WordPress 5.2.

This release also contains a number of bug fixes and minor updates.

Fixes and minor improvements

• Updates largo_home_single_top function to get homepage_feature_term and top_story_term values from slug instead of by name. If these prominence names were updated to anything else, homepage_feature_term and top_story_term would be false and fallback to __('Homepage Featured', 'largo'). Pull request #1709 for issue #1445.
